For multiple OS'es in a corporate environment, I found PopTop on OpenBSD
to be a good solution. I set up OpenVPN, PopTop, and IPSec on the OBSD
firewall but found that most users preferred PopTop. This was mostly
because users with Windows XP machines at home or on the road did not
have to make any changes or add additional software. Since OpenBSD has
pptpclient and rdesktop packages, it was not a hassle for the home
OpenBSD users to use this set up either.
